There are two programming languages that, while having a similar name, have different purposes and features:<\/p>
JavaScript <\/b>– JavaScript is a client-side scripting language mainly used for front-end web development. It runs directly in the web browser, adding interactivity, form validation, and dynamic content manipulation to your website.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul> JavaScript is fully supported<\/b> on all of our hosting plans at Hostinger.<\/p>\n<\/div> Java <\/b>– Java is an object-oriented programming language commonly used for building specific applications, such as desktop applications, web servers, and Android apps, among others.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul> Running Java servlets and server pages (JSP) requires permissions, configurations, and installations that ask for root access<\/b> to the hosting environment. Since root access is not available on our Web and Cloud hosting plans, the alternative is a virtual private server<\/a><\/b> (VPS).<\/p> \n<\/p>\n
